The State of APT Preparedness

Overview: Many IT security professionals recognize that advanced
persistent threats (APTs) pose a growing risk to their
organizations. However, recent UBM Tech research
discovered that only a few are taking the necessary
steps to combat APTs and protect their organizations.
In fact, many appear to have a misplaced sense of
confidence in their ability to detect these attacks, even
though few have developed strategies for dealing with
them. This gap is particularly troubling since security
experts say that it isn't a question of whether an APT
attack will occur, but when.
